[Bug 561177] [NEW] Move to another workspace doesn't keep the window original position.

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

If you use the window menu to send a not fullscreen window to a
different workspace, the window will be located in a different position
(x and y).

Reproduce:
1. Using default compiz "Normal" settings.
2. Using Gnome 2.30 with Ubuntu Lucid Beta 2
3. Open an application, like gnome-terminal
4. Don't put the application to fullscreen mode
5. Check window's current position with "xwininfo"
6. Right-click the window title bar and select "Move to Workspace Right".
7. Check the newer window's position at the other workspace.

Results:
1. Original position:
  Absolute upper-left X:  1
  Absolute upper-left Y:  49
  Relative upper-left X:  1
  Relative upper-left Y:  49
2. After moving it to the second workspace:
  Absolute upper-left X:  2
  Absolute upper-left Y:  74
  Relative upper-left X:  2
  Relative upper-left Y:  74
3. Back to the first workspace:
  Absolute upper-left X:  3
  Absolute upper-left Y:  99
  Relative upper-left X:  3
  Relative upper-left Y:  99
4. Back to the second one:
  Absolute upper-left X:  4
  Absolute upper-left Y:  124
  Relative upper-left X:  4
  Relative upper-left Y:  124
